Monolith Android Game for Android Mobile

Sponsored link
Monolith Android is a 3D Tetris like game for Android. The code is based on the SDK samples of the Android SDK. The intent of developer Tasos Kleisas was to create a fun to play game, and also to familiarize himself with the rich API of the Android platform. The game uses openGL ES to render the graphics. Apart from the classic Tetris gameplay, the game also provides an additional game mode Monolith, and a Puzzle mode is planned for a later release.

Monolith Android Game

The Monolith name derives from the fact that the matrix that the game is played in, looks a bit like a monolith from the film ‘2001 a Space Odyssey’. Classic mode is a plain old Tetris game which most folks love to play. You move the falling blocks left and right with the D-Pad of your Android phone. You rotate the blocks by pressing Up on the D-Pad and you can make a block fall faster if you press down on the D-Pad. As you complete more lines the game gets faster.

Monolith mode at first looks like a Tetris game but there are special, white monolith blocks. When a line is completed with a monolith block in it, evolution of the grid begins. The grid changes according to the rules of Conway’s Game of Life. The evolution of the cells takes place for the number of timesteps labeled as energy in the game. Energy is increased every time a line is cleared.

You can rotate the playfield around the x and y axes by dragging on the touch screen. If you drag near the top left of the screen you reset the playfield to it’s original position

Planned Enhancements include a Puzzle mode, a puzzle editor, puzzle downloading and a detailed option screen. For more information visit Monolith Android on Google Code.
